1 Products of lipid peroxidation were compared in two different grades of commercially‐obtained arachidonic acid. 2 The less pure 90% sample was yellow in colour, had low reactivity with 2‐thiobarbituric acid and diene conjugation but high u.v. fluorescence, whereas the 99% pure sample, which was clear in colour, showed a reverse pattern of oxidation products. 3 The significance of these findings is discussed.
